Honest limits

- A canopy that is too small or a system that was badly designed
- A damper that sticks or has a damaged link
- Fat blocking the kitchen drains

Kitchen extract cleaning in Egham
Insurers often want evidence of regular TR19 cleaning, and some may refuse or reduce a claim when it’s missing. For a kitchen in Egham, our certificate and photo report give you that record for the maintenance log. If you are dealing with ductwork thick with old, hardened grease and proof of cleaning requested by an insurer, we can help, from discharge points, vertical risers and canopies and hoods onwards. Most calls from Egham come after an insurer, an EHO or a fire officer asks to see the last TR19 certificate. Either way, the answer is the same: a proper clean and the paperwork to match.
Each job starts with a look at where grease has built up: wet film or deposit thickness readings show which parts of the duct need the most attention, and the same readings after the clean show the result.
Many kitchens in a town like Egham were fitted into buildings built for something else, so duct runs can be awkward, with bends, long horizontal sections and too few access panels. Sections we can’t reach are listed on the report, and access panels can be added.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Egham kitchens: local notes
The FSA’s data shows about 18 pubs and bars and about 6 hotels and B&Bs registered in Egham and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Any of them serving cooked food has an extract to keep clean, from canopy to discharge. In Egham, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Runnymede council. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. The fire and rescue service for Egham is Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near St John's Church, or anywhere in Egham, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it. School kitchens, at schools like Manorcroft Primary School for example, are normally cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost.

What the work involves, part by part
Extract fan and discharge
The fan pulls the air through the whole system, and grease that gets past everything else ends up on its blades. We isolate it, open it up and degrease it.
Ductwork and risers
Horizontal runs collect grease as the air slows and cools. Each run is cleaned through its access panels, recording any that cannot be reached.
How the visit works
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and the same goes into the written report. The visit takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one. Send us pictures of the system and we can plan most of a visit in Egham before we arrive.
- We survey the system, from your photos or on site, canopy to discharge.
- Grease thickness is measured and the price is fixed before work starts.
- The kitchen is closed, the equipment cooled and everything nearby protected.
- Filters, canopy and plenum are cleaned, then the ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
- Readings are repeated, pictures taken, and your TR19 certificate and photo report issued.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards

Advice
Egham: your questions answered
Which council inspects kitchens in Egham?
Food hygiene inspections in Egham are carried out by Runnymede council. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
Do you work at weekends in Egham?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. It means the site in Egham keeps running as normal. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
How much notice do you need?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
How much does kitchen extract cleaning cost in Egham?
Every site is different, so each gets its own fixed quote. To get one, call 0345 646 2711 or email us with the site type, opening hours and a few photos.
Does the law say I must clean to TR19?
The legal duty sits in the Fire Safety Order 2005 rather than in TR19 itself. In practice, TR19 is how kitchens show they’re managing grease, and an insurer may refuse or reduce a claim without it.
What types of premises do you cover?
Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, as well as food production and leisure sites.
Can you quote from pictures?
Often, yes. Photos of the system and the access, plus your opening hours and last report, are often enough. Larger or hidden systems need a survey on site first.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, 24/7. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, and the emergency line covers the rest.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we’ll send a fixed quote.
For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.
Why it’s worth doing now in Egham
TR19® isn’t law, but the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 is. It puts a duty on the responsible person to assess and reduce fire risk, and in a kitchen that means keeping extract grease under control. TR19 is the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. An inspector or insurer will want to see recent records, so it makes sense to have them ready.
We don’t list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll talk you through it.

What else we do in Egham
Do you need kitchen extract cleaning in Egham?
The type of cooking changes the amount of grease. Fryers, grills and open flames throw much more fat into the extract than gentler cooking, which is why grease readings matter more than the calendar.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- A new tenancy or takeover with no cleaning history
- Rancid smells from grease in the duct
- An extract that has never been cleaned to TR19
- Grease dripping from the canopy or filters
Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Ashford Hospital is the nearest hospital to Egham, about 3.5 miles east.
Questions to ask before you book
- How VAT is shown on the quote
- Whether a written report and photos are included
- What insurance they carry
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
Aftercare tips
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. We recommend:
- Tell us when the extract starts to drip or smell
- Keep the baffle filters clean
- Switch the fan on before cooking starts
- Keep to the recommended cleaning interval
A TR19 certificate notes the date, the location and the technician. File it with the fire risk assessment and the maintenance log, so it’s to hand when an insurer, fire officer or EHO asks.
Run the extract whenever the kitchen is cooking. Cooking with the extract off lets grease and heat settle in the canopy, and the next clean has more to do.
